there was a topic on this, but i think mine is different
well since it got cold, there has been a thin layer of thick foam on my oil cap, the other topic said this was normal, but today it was 0 degrees out and i rode around for 15min and checked the cap, there was thick sludge on the bottom of my oil cap and looking inside where you pour the oil, it was there also, and on the tip of the dipstick there was a smudge
is this engine sludge?? i'm pretty worried and my dealer is closed today,
on a side note, i missing about a QT of oil since i kept putting off topping it off (this may be the reason for the sludge, overheating of the oil), i have 16000, 6K since my last oil change, i'm following the manual since i'm using mobile one synthetic 0-w40
any help is appreciated
